Aspidiotus jordani Kuwana, 1902: 69 . Type data: Japan, on Quercus sp.

Diagnosis. Adult female cover white, flat, circular; shed skins yellow to dark, central. Male not collected by the author. Adult female turbinate with three pairs of well-developed lobes. Median lobes rectangularshaped, separated by half of width of one median lobe; lobe 2 and lobe 3 triangular-shaped. Paraphyses well-developed, arising from basal corners of lobes, 2 paraphyses between the adjacent lobes curved towards each other, forming a reverse U-shaped sclerosis between median lobes, between median and second lobes, and between second and third lobes. Plates fimbriate; 2 in each side of 1 st space and 2 nd space; 3 in 3 rd space. With 1–3 marginal macroducts on abdominal segments 3–4, shorter than pygidial macroducts. Pygidial macroducts usually extending up to base of anus, about 100 μm long, with about 34 on each side of pygidium on abdominal segments 5–8. Antenna with 1 seta. Anterior and posterior spiracles without pores. Perivulvar pores in 4 groups, about 35 pores in total.
